shell: introduce txtsnd pseudomodule

This commit allows to enable/disable the txtsnd shell command. The
command is used to send strings over L2 in GNRC. Until now the command
was automatically enabled if GNRC and shell_commands were present, which
may lead to confusion if no L2 packet handler is registered.
